He had done it, the city was his, the pathetic titans were hiding, slowly striking all he had worked for, trying to resist him. He shook his head in disgust at them, all of them were a nuisance, children playing an adults game, thinking they were a match for him? It was almost laughable, how they thought they would always win, cocky children. His musing was interrupt by a young girl in a full metal suit, her blonde hair falling across one eye.
"Sir," she addressed stepping into his room, walking to just before his giant chair, he nodded slowly giving her the go ahead to talk. "We have finally captured the Titans, shall I bring them in?" She asked a triumph smirk on her now cold features, yes she was a much better apprentice then Robin ever was obedient, loyal and evil, Terra was his right hand.
"Yes, make sure they are bound properly." He told her in his slow menacing voice, nodding she walked back out to retrieve them. If he was anyone else he might have jumped for joy, as it was underneath the mask was a gleeful smirk, finally they were here, here in his grasp. No longer were they fighting, no, now they were his prisoners, the thought set well with him.
He watched with an evil sort of fascinating as one by one the former Titans were brought in, first Cyborg bound with electrical circuits, making it impossible for him to attack, his eyes were hard as he glared at Slade, all of his hate was nothing compared to the boy wonders though, then was Beast Boy, Terra's former lover, a collar that would prevent his changing, he looked dejected and devastated, nothing brought him more satisfaction then the hopeless look in his eyes.
Thirdly was Raven, bound in magical rope to prevent her from moving, a small set of earplugs with music that would disrupt her, her eyes kept changing between her regular and red as she tried to struggle, next came the beautiful Starfire, bound in the strongest material so she could escape, a cloth made out of the same material to stop her from shooting star bolts, the woman was struggling cursing him out in Tamaranean.
Lastly his favorite, Robin who was struggling the most, his utility belt taken away and bound in strong rope and metal, he was cursing him out in English, but his words didn't faze him. Even under the mask he could feel the burning hatred he felt, even when all hope was lost the boy kept up the fight, the hate and vile he felt towards him was amazing for a boy so young, they were more alike than he cared to admit. The five of them were on their knees, not by choice of course, but they should bow to their leader.
He smiled proudly as Terra kicked Beast Boy, causing the boy to yelp, she stood behind them, not once fazed by the murderous look all but her former love sent her, she was perfect. "You did well my dear." He told her, his voice calm and reverberating off the high ceilings, Terra smirked slightly in acknowledgment.
Getting off his chair he walked down the short steps to them, looking at each of them was they still tried to escape, all holding on to the ridiculous idea they could win, "Cyborg, my favorite monster." At his words Cyborg struggled even more until he got shocked, "how does it feel to be held back by the very thing keeping you alive?" His voice was dark yet held a twisted amusement.
"You haven't won yet Slade." Cyborg spat out his name in disgust, which made him smirk. "Even if we go down, there will always be heroes." He shook his head at his idiotic logic, hope was a stupid thing, yet for some reason they all still had it. "Brave words, tin man," he bent down to where he was eye level, "if there are others, I will kill them too, hope is dying, you know this."
Standing up he took a couple of steps over to Beast Boy, he was in pain, this was torture to see the girl he loved become evil, made him feel like he won even more. "Beast Boy, Terra's told me so much about you..." Beast Boy looked up at him, the blinding hate in his eyes rivaling Robin's, startling him slightly. "You-You corrupted her!" He yelled at him anger in his voice, "you changed her! Destroyed her!"
He felt a smirk overcome him, bending down to look at him he let out a low chuckle. "No my dear boy, no, Terra was evil, it courses through her veins. Much like the mutant gene that allows you to change, Terra is evil, all I did was give her armor, the rest was all her." He stood up; watching as his head tilted downwards whispering her name, even though she was right behind him, the boy was a fool, a fool that believed what he wanted, rather than the truth.
"Dear, sweet Raven," he said as she watched her she wasn't struggling but her eyes kept changing between demon and human. "Isn't irony funny, if you had trusted yourself and told everyone about whom Terra really was, this whole crisis would have never happened." Raven growled at him as he talked sounding smug and amused, bending down to her level she saw the plain amusement in his good eye.
"I find this all perfect, you knew she couldn't be trusted, deep down you knew. Yet you didn't say anything, giving her a second chance, you are weak my dear." He stood up looking down at her enjoying this torture; mind games were the easiest way to defeat your foe. "You don't know anything Slade," her voice was bitter and hard, "you're a sad old man who thinks that by defeating us you win, there are more hero's out there then you know."
He shook his head at her, "strong words for a demon." He told her, walking over to Starfire who was still cussing, he signaled for a cloth to gag her with, "-Clorbag valblernelk-Mmmp!" She struggled even more at being gagged to which he smirked, "Leave her alone Slade!" Slade looked over to Robin who was struggling even more with the fact he was near Starfire, "Really Robin, you make it much too obvious." He shook his head as he turned his attention back to Starfire, what was an insult in Tamaranean again? Oh yes, " pathetic Trog."
He watched in satisfaction as her eyes widened beneath the cloth, before she started struggling even more, "Isn't it perfect, the friend you trusted betrayed you, betrayed you're trust, everyone seems too...I wonder who'll be next?" Her curses died down and he removed the cloth, wondering what she would say.
"By X'hal's light you will face justice, you will die a death that is even too kind for the scum you are." She spat disgust and hatred in her normally sweet voice.
"I think that will be you, who dies my dear." He told her walking over to Robin who was struggling madly, his favorite Titans, the easiest one to mess with, oh the fun it was to get under his skin. "Hello Robin, I regret this is the last time I get to say these precious words." Robin stopped struggling to glare at him, furious and a blinding, searing hatred reflect beneath the mask.
"This is what you sought to prevent, isn't it?" He asked looking around the dark room, turning back to look at him he bent down. "What you loved is gone, what you want is dead, your life's are meaningless. So tell me Robin, what happens now? Do you suddenly overcome the bad guy?" He asked rhetorically, his voice holding a wicked amusement, delighting in this torture. "No you don't, this is the real world Robin, heroes don't win, they fall down, hard."
He stood up and walked to his chair, stopping mid step at hearing Robin's voice ring out, despite the fact they lost his voice still sounded strong and confident, like he wasn't even losing. "You're wrong Slade, you're always wrong." Slade turned around to see Robin trying to glare a hole in him, "we may have lost today, but heroes never lose, not while there's light, not while there is good. As long as evil tries, good will try even harder!"
Slade's eye narrowed at him, he was smirking now, the Robin was still glaring but with a smirk. "Foolish words from a foolish boy, we're done here. Terra!" Terra looked up with an evil smirk adorning her features, "Yes sir?"
He waved his hand at them, indicating for the robots to grab them, "get them ready for the execution, it's time we punish the children." Both we're smirking in evil glee as the former titans were hauled up roughly and dragged out, with Terra following them out, he sat down on the chair tapping his fingers together with a grin, tomorrow would be the day he won.
I was truly proud of this, despite the fact I made Slade win, but I think its fairly good, tell me what you think. :)
